Live blog: Verlander cruises through 5th

Top 5th: Tigers 6, Indians 0

The Tribe may not have run their best lineup out on the field tonight, but Justin Verlander is still on point, breezing through inning after inning at Comerica Park.

Brandon Guyer struck out looking at a nasty breaking ball, Jesus Aguilar flew out to center field and Chris Gimenez grounded out to third to end the inning.

Verlander's strikeout count is up to eight. He's thrown just 56 pitches tonight.

Bottom 4th: Tigers 6, Indians 0

James McCann was hit by a pitch to put the leadoff man on for the Tigers in the fourth.
